Airdrieonians vs St. Mirren U21Prediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

A Challenge Cup tie at the Albert Bartlett Stadium with no table to lean on, so recent results do the talking. Airdrie United come in off a 0-0 at home with East Fife, which followed three straight defeats: 1-3 at home to Stirling Albion, 1-3 again at home to Ross County and 0-4 away at Hamilton Academical. The last five are completed by a 3-1 won away at Dumbarton. St. Mirren U21 have played all five of their most recent matches away from their own ground, with results improving markedly along the way: first a 1-2 against Kelty Hearts and a 0-2 against Stranraer, then a 4-4 at East Kilbride and finally two wide margins, 4-1 against Clyde and 5-2 against East Fife. No previous meetings between the two clubs are on record. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
